My name is Dave Dröge (Vlaardingen, 1966). I worked in ICT (development and design) and graduated in psychology at the Erasmus University and the Open University, including getting a BAPD qualification for diagnostics. From 2010 I mainly write novels: the first two years a trilogy about three writers who have an ambitious plan, establish a metaphysical revolution through an artistic event, simultaneously held in Paris and Amsterdam. The following year I wrote a relatively short novel which describes a dream world faced with a harsh reality. Recently I wrote The Game Changer, a large-scale novel about a company doctor […]

Born and raised in Canada, worked as a lawyer and partner in a mega-law firm for many years then chucked everything and made a break for L.A. to pursue a (pipe) dream of being a working screenwriter. A couple of years later, I went crawling back to that jealous mistress THE LAW, and have been practicing law in my own solo firm, in the US and Canada, and writing novels and short pieces since.

I have two great and very creative kids, and a really cool and supportive husband, who encouraged me to pick up those early books of mine, […]

Robert has lived all around the United States at one time or another for brief periods. Born in Northern Virginia, he is now a happily married father of four, residing just outside of Charlotte, North Carolina. He developed his passion for writing at an early age, mostly through poetry, being published for the first time at seventeen. Later, with his love of the outdoors and with a survivalist mentality, his passion evolved into writing short stories and finally into full length novels focusing mainly in the post-apocalyptic/horror and the suspense/thriller genres.

With two titles already under his belt, (the post-apocalyptic […]

An animal-loving vegan, she is fascinated with all things to do with rabbit holes, exposing evils, self-evident truths and unexplained mysteries. She was either a mouse or a mermaid in her previous life but was definitely born playing piano. The Rebellious Earthling (a fantasy novel for grown-up adults) is her second novel, with her first […]

I am an international banker. My first book, Boosting You, was about helping people become better executives. It was published in 2010. After that, I have written many articles about relationships on Thought Catalog.

Why did you want to write a book?

Through observation and experience, I believe I have an answer to many of the questions we ask ourselves in the field of romance and relationships. I felt it my duty to share these answers with others, especially that I found an original plot to do so.

Why did you choose to self-publish?

Major publishers will not consider you […]

Maria Beta as a child asked her mother to change her name to Rainbow Brite. Lucky for her, her mother didn’t agree with it. Many times she tried to prove if the Force really existed, but despite pens and mugs not moving, she realized that even if they don’t, it was fun to think they could.

After her mother brought home, by mistake, Flash Gordon instead of the My Little Pony movie, that was the final jump to imagination beyond Earth. With a math and economics background, passion for history, and a ‘bit’ of imagination, she is creating The Elemental […]
